Stand Alone Works
‘Araf’
2021 | 150cm x 100cm | Acrylic on canvas | £995
It all began with a country. Wales. Where A roads are B roads and people secondary to its changing landscape. You take a turn down a single track road and think you’re almost at your destination after you pass a turning circle. Then you see it, a sheep - you drive closer, it hops to the side. You attempt to drive past hoping it doesn’t panic. It panics. But that’s just Wales. You god damn wild thing.
‘Brooklyn’
2020 | 102cm x 127cm | Acrylic and masking fluid on canvas | £550
Looking back at past travels to New York through a Alexander Rodchenko/John Baldessari/Ed Ruscha lense.
‘Fat Boy… After Ed Ruscha’
2018 | 61cm x 101cm | Acrylic on canvas | £125
A study after Ed Ruscha’s ‘The Old Tech-Chem Building, 2003’ exploring how to paint white.
‘Meet Me Downtown’
2020 | 102cm x 127cm | Acrylic on canvas | £550
A rare moment captured in Brooklyn, New York due to the temporally sensitive nature of cities. I particularly liked how symbiotic the art and architecture were in regards to framing but am also sure that it no longer exists today. But it once did.
‘Sutton Courtenay In Adolescence’
2020 | 3x 76cm x 51cm | Acrylic on canvas | £325 each
The far left work, the dark silhouette made using a multitude of dark shades displays the subtleties within adolescence experience.
The middle work uses the same shade from the previous silhouette to completley cover the sign in an otherwise charcoal drawing signifying the blindness in adolescence.
The far right work, uses a block of colour on the bottom of the plane to balance the image visually and to evoke the notion of a polaroid photograph. This is meant to show how balance and perspective come as experience fade into memories.
Sold
‘Lá Salute II’
2023 | 100cm x 150cm | Acrylic on canvas | SOLD
Another study of the Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute but on a larger scale - an imposing example of visual serenity and chromatic comlexity.
‘Copenhouses’
2017 | 61cm x 76cm | Acrylic on canvas | SOLD
Taking big bold brush strokes to the houses of Copenhagen. Using the brush strokes to patchwork a piece together, exploring colour theory from the works of Paul Cézanne but also perspective through Paolo Uccello.
‘A Love I’d Wait For’
2020 | 127cm x 102cm | Acrylic on canvas | SOLD
An ode to one of the greatest sculptors, Antonio Canova.
A visual exploration of the psychological turbulance of love, loss and reunion. I have purposefully left certain areas on the canvas gesso only for the paint to display the fleeting nature of our desires and moments of complete clarity (without ego).
‘Copenboats’
2020 | 102cm x 127cm | Acrylic on canvas | SOLD
Inspired by a commission (Commission #12), this exploration into colour and perception uses bold brush strokes to patchwork a scene together through local perception inspired by the phenomenological works of Paul Cézanne.
‘Dead End’
2021 | 59cm x 42cm | Acrylic on canvas | SOLD
One of many acrylic sketches of Venice. Always attempting to convey the plethora of ways light moves around this uniquely serene city.
‘Empire To Porto’
2021 | 42cm x 59cm | Acrylic and ink on canvas | SOLD
This piece is based on the Dom Luís I Bridge in Porto and is largely influenced by the dynamism of Alexander Rodchenko.
The use of ink is designed to give the bridge a greater sense of structure and direction. And the portrayal of the sun is stylistically influenced by John Baldessari and chromatically influenced by René Magritte’s Empire of Light 1953-4.
‘Lá Salute I’
2020 | 102cm x 127cm | Acrylic on canvas | SOLD
An exercise in expressing the stillness and timeless majesty of the Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute based on an image shot from the Bauer Hotel terrace during the Venice Film Festival. Particular care was taken here to let the monument appear through the dark canvas using impasto to create an urgency to the chiaroscuro.
‘Lá Salute II’
2021 | 42cm x 59cm | Acrylic on canvas | SOLD
The second of my Lá Salute series shows the Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute at dusk, highlighting the yellow of the vaporetto stop throughout the plane. Combining acrylic layers to evoke the majesty of the church set amongst a mercurial autumn afternoon, this piece aims to express the city’s true serenity.
‘Laundry Day’
2021 | 60cm x 42 cm | Acrylic and oil on canvas | SOLD
Alternating between acrylic and oil layers, I hoped to recreate the light that can only be found in a city like Venice - true and fleeting.
‘Stairs, Sewer Green’
2018 | 60cm x 76cm | Acrylic on canvas | SOLD
Exploration of stairs with a particular influence from John Monks. This one proved difficult to finish - after 3 years of understanding the chromatic complexities of sewer green, the piece was finally finished and now happily hung up in a home.
